Brush Your Art Out

Toothbrush Art


YAY!


  • Does it offer an educational experience? Yes
  • What does it teach? Fine motor skills
  • Is it age (i.e., 2 - 3 year old) appropriate? No


What You’ll Need:

  • White paper
  • Washable Paint
  • Old Toothbrush


Mom Prep Work:

  • None


What You’ll Do:

  1. Dip toothbrush in paint
  2. Flick paint on to the paper


I thought this would change my son’s attitude toward his toothbrush. But the activity didn’t really work for us. For some reason, the paint splattered all over us, missing the paper. So he ended up using the toothbrush as a paint brush, which he seemed to enjoy. I do think this activity is better suited for the backyard.
